Detectives investigate Seattle molestation report

Detectives are investigating reports of child molestation that occurred Wednesday in Seward Park.

A group of boys between 8 and 13 years old were in the men’s bathroom changing clothes that afternoon near the beach area when a man approached the boys, made lewd comments to them, tried to take off one child’s pants and touched another child, according to reports from the Seattle Police Department.

The man left the bathroom and got into a green Toyota Corolla with an elderly man who appeared to be in his 90s and drove away, reports say.

The boys described the man as in his 40s, 5-feet-11, 200 pounds, wearing gray shorts and red sneakers.

They reported the incident immediately to lifeguards, who called police and provided officers with information on the suspect.
